<h3>At a Glance</h3>
<p>A portal network, anchored by a central archway found in <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/04/17/hlaungadath/" title="Hlaungadath">Hlaungadath</a>.</p>
<p>The Hlaungadath portal is keyed to a certain dwarven chant, a mere 30 lines in length.  The final line &mdash;<em>that the halls of our fathers may stand for ten thousand years</em>&mdash; is altered to specify the portal&#8217;s destination among five possibilities.</p>
<ul>
<li><em>&#8230;a thousand years</em>: the Astral plane</li>
<li><em>&#8230;two thousand years</em>: a crumbling archway in the ruins of a forgotten city of <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/12/10/miyeritar/" title="Miyeritar">Miyeritar</a></li>
<li><em>&#8230;six thousand years</em>: a now-buried chamber in the ruin of what was once another enclave that survived Karsus&#8217; Folly to establish the realm of <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/12/08/anauria/" title="Anauria">Anauria</a></li>
<li><em>&#8230;ten thousand years</em>: a little-used chamber of <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/07/03/ascore/" title="Ascore">Ascore</a></li>
<li><em>&#8230;twelve thousand years</em>: an abandoned elven home in a tree three miles north of <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/03/24/myth-drannor/" title="Myth Drannor">Myth Drannor</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Each of the portal destinations is two-way, so travelers may return to Hlaungadath by repeating the same chant.  However, one cannot travel directly from Myth Drannor to Miyeritar, for example.</p>
